What’s working and what isn’t for the Flyers so far

The Philadelphia Flyers have played (at least technically to some diehard skeptics) nine periods of hockey so far, and two overtime sessions. In those three games, they are 0-1-2, which, heading into Sunday’s slate of games around the league, good enough for a nine-way tie in the Eastern Conference. Most of the other teams with two points have played only two games, while some have only played once. And they probably didn’t truly deserve those two points they earned over the three games. They ...

Oilers could be the perfect trade partner for the Flyers right now

While this early in the NHL season isn’t known for many trades, this past summer and the Toronto Maple Leafs’ blockbuster acquisition of Kirill Marchenko has thrown that notion completely out. Anything can really happen and we wouldn’t be shocked and the Philadelphia Flyers could get in on the action more than just their minor-league swap of forwards. It was noted last week that the Flyers are reportedly looking for defensive help , keeping an eye out for any defender that could help soli...

Flyers vs. Hurricanes: How to watch, lineups, and gamethread

With the first little road trip of the season out of the way, the Flyers are returning home again tonight for perhaps their biggest matchup of this young season. The Flyers are set to face off against their rival Hurricanes, for the first time since Carolina swept them out of the second round of the playoffs last spring, and they’re looking to really get things back on track after a pretty uninspiring — if not downright disastrous — first two games of the season. This isn’t going to be an easy...

Roundtable: The biggest concern about the Flyers’ terrible start

The Philadelphia Flyers have had a miserable start to their season. A 7-0 loss in their season opener against the hated Penguins at home, followed by a 3-2 overtime loss to the Devils where the only reason they weren’t blown out once again was Joseph Woll in between the pipes. Now, they’re heading back to Philadelphia to face the reigning Stanley Cup champions, the Carolina Hurricanes. But before what should be an interesting game, we have to just take note of what our biggest concern is ...

Flyers overhaul lineup after disastrous start to the season

There is no sugar-coating the start to the Philadelphia Flyers season. It has been dreadful. Two games in which they acted more like a practice squad for the other team’s stars to practice their offense rather than try and prevent scoring chances, and there is not much hope of things changing anytime soon. Since, you know, they’re facing the Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday night. Ahead of the game though, Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet is looking for answers. At morni...

4 Flyers who could reach major career milestones this season

The season is two games in, and already has had more than enough drama. First there was Denver Barkey leaving the opening exhibition game against Washington, only to return to practice in a non-contact yellow jersey a few days later. He’s on injured reserve but might be closer to returning than anticipated. Then goaltender Dan Vladar left an exhibition game against Boston with just over six minutes to go in the first period with what looked like a shoulder issue. Initial indications suggested ...
